TIME TO START BABY OVER KRSTIC!

unless shaq walks thru that door, i think its time we consider throwing bb out there to start from now on for defensive purposes and for us to stop falling bak by 10 every game! this is not sustainable. if we dont get at least 1 of the oneals, we can not win it all! -

Krstic was playing great his first few games for the C's. I think Doc started trying to make Krstic play a more power game, and that is not his game. He needs to get back to playing the way he has always played. he is a finesse player not a power player!! -

Puh-leeese....
Baby is a good role player. Dude will be even better when he is paired with JO and/or Krstic coming off the bench. -

Baby is playing as many minutes as he can now. Take him off the second unit and put Kristic in there, and then see how bad the second unit is. -

but even so, krstic's first few games he was mixing inside and out for very nice results. all i've seen the last few games is ZERO outside game from the guy. he's not designed to do that. -

aciemvp and kyceltic--great points. I was watching the last couple of games and couldn't quite put my finger on what looked "wrong" with krstic and you are right on the money. I cant remember (im sure he has) the last time in the last few games he popped a 15 foot jumper like he did his first few. He is frustrating when he plays with his back to the basket--as you stated..its not his game. -

Is it DOc tinkering again trying to make a player into something hes not...ala Nate?
Kristic had his offensive game together when he got here... now thats slowly fading, dont know why. Hes hesitating a little bit under the hoop and hes also picking up alot of BS fouls under there too... the refs been skrewin him left & right.
Add to that Doc giving him the look with every wrong step he takes... maybe hes losing a little confidence...getting yanked out of games now..
Wish Doc would use the strict hand with some of his other players -

Baby enjoys his role coming off the bench ... he plays much better. Our only hope is the Oneal's which is still scary to me -

Mostly I respond so I can see your picture but I think the reason they fall behind early on has nothing to do with the frontcourt - the point guard cannot shoot, will not shoot, pounds the ball into the floor, runs the shot clock down, causes 3 second and shot clock violations, and generally misses most of the simply basic shots that most point guards make.
The ball movement has been horrendous and that is because it is stuck in one guy's hands and when there is a missed shot, lately they have been at the mercy of younger and more athletic teams.

THIS breaks down my case perhaps best for baby starting and for his DEFENSE!
